Hand 17 gave me an early double up w/Ac Qh in the BB. Flop was 8c Qc 7c giving me a nut flush draw. UTG was doing some big betting, so I just called. Turn 10c. I & UTG checked. River 2c. Since UTG didn't bet on the Turn I figure I have nothing to lose betting here and bet 860 into the 475 pot and to my surprise, with FIVE CLUBS on the board they called!! UTG showed Ad Qs, Short stack, 150 chips, showed Jc 9d. I have 3145 chips and can relax a bit.

Hand 18 I give a bunch of them back as the SB w/Ks Qd. Six players. Action folds to the BTN who open raises w/150, I & BB call. BB is left w/395 chips. Flop 2h 2s Jh. I check and BB goes all-in w/395 into the 450 pot, BTN folds and I decide to call. No special reason, I just have overcards to the flop. BB shows Ac 4c, one overcard to me. Turn 8c. River Ah. I'm back to 2600 chips.
Hand 21 I get back chips w/AKs vs AJo and am up to 3000 chips.
Hand 29 is one of those hands where I'd be better off just folding early on. I'm BB w/Qd 4d and 3090 chips. Two of the six players limp in and I call. Flop Jh 9s Qh. I pair my Q but there is potential for a straight or straight draw as well as a heart flush draw. I bet 120 into the 210 pot, UTG calls and CO folds. Turn 8d. If UTG has a 10 they have a straight. I check and UTG bets 300 into the 450 pot, leaving them w/510 chips. I raise them to 600 and they re-raise me to 810 when they go all-in. I call. If I win I knock them out, but it is very unlikely they'd have bet as they did if they didn't have the winner. Indeed they do showing Ad 10h. I'm cut back to 2100 chips.
Hand 69 we hit the bubble. Stacks were relatively close and we could easily switch around with a win here and there. Stack sizes were: 4465, 3440, 2645 (me), and 2550.
Hand 88. I'm the BB w/pocket 3's (3c 3h), 4595 chips (just slightly the big stack). Action folds to the SB who open raises to 3 BB (600) and I call. Flop 9h Qc 3d. I hit my set. SB bets 800 into the 1200 pot and I raise to 1600. They re-raise all-in w/their last 3185 chips. Are they on a draw? Did they hit a set w/the 9 or Q? Well there is only one way to find out and I call. If they have a bigger set I'm dead, but I'm banking they don't. If I lose I have 210 chips left and likely would end up 4th. SB shows 7d 10h. Actually nothing at this point and they need two cards to make any kind of straight. Turn 4d. River 10c. My set holds up. We are down to three and I'm big stack with 9380 chips. 2nd high has 2670 and short stack has 1450. One other advantage I may have here is they are both playing 4 to 7 tables.
I play cautiously being, generally unwilling to give up any of my chips. Hand 120 I have pocket K's (Kd Ks). I'm on the BTN and open raise 2 BB (480), SB folds, & CO raises all-in w/their last 1460 chips. I call, wondering if they might have pocket A's. .They don't, but they do have one Ace. Flop Qs 9d As. They pair their Ace and it looks like they're going to double up. Turn 3d. No help. I get lucky on the River. River Kh. We are now HU.I have 10,900 chips to the other players 2600.
Again I play very cautiously. We do a bit of bouncing around and on hand 149 they double up. I have pocket 3's, they have J7o. They open raise all-in w/1970 chips and since I have a pair I call. Flop 7d Ad Ah. they pair their 7. Turn 4s. River 8h. They now have 3940 chips.
I've had pocket A's and K's a few times here but was never able to get any action for them until hand 153. I'm BB, blinds are 150/300. SB open raises 2 BB (600) and I make a small raise to 900 and SB calls. Flop 9h 2d 2c. I check and so does the SB. Not looking like these A's are going to get much action either. Turn Js. I bet 750 into the 1800 pot and the SB calls. River 5h. I bet 1350 into the 3300 pot and the SB raises me all-in w/their last 1990 chips. I call. SB shows Jc 8s. Two pair, J's high. I also have two pair A's high. It's over and I win.
